Hartford School District

School Board of Directors Policy Committee

March 17,2015

Present: Joe Collea, TomDeBalsi, Rick Dustin-Eichler, Charles Reibel

Discussion focused on the concussion policy. The focus of which centered around which medical practitioners are qualified to allow reentry to play for student athletes. Additional concerns were raised over parental clearance of their own children when they are a medical practitioner. The consensus is that parents, no matter their degree of medical proficiency, not be allowed to clear their own children for reentry. There is an inherent conflict in this action.

Discussion on March 31st will focus on the procedural requirements that correspond to this policy.
